Final Forward. I will not be forwarding every NLA post from now on, rather my political List mainly. Thanks be to Mr. Millegan for permitting me to join. Bates ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Tammuz, 5764. Noachide Liberation Army List. Happy Independence Day! In Remembrance of the Rebbe. Hello. It is good to be with each and every one of you, again. The purpose of this e-mail is to reiterate the purpose of this List. It is NOT for seasoned NLA readers. Rather, it is for new readers, as well as my new friends on the Christian Noachides List. Those of you who are old friends are welcome to skip this, and even to delete it if you so desire. First of all, the Noachide Liberation Army is an army of the pen, not the sword. We are an Educational List. Yes, I believe in the Second Amendment, but I do not bear a carnal sword. That is not the kind of Army I am a part of. I bear the sword of Educational Enlightenment, not of hate, war or death. However, we are a Branch of the Army of HaShem, the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Daily do I meditate upon His Word and Voice. Daily do I seek His Will as to how to understand His Law, His Torah. Now, I agree with Judge Roy Moore and others who defend the Ten Commandments. However, the Ten Commandments were given to Israel. It may be a Mitzvah for Gentiles to uphold them (which would include the Seventh Day Sabbath, not the First Day), but the essentials of the Law are the Noahide Laws, listed as such: 1)No Murder 2)No Stealing 3)No Idolatry 4)No Blasphemy 5)No Fornication 6)No Animal Cruelty 7)Establish Just Courts. Of course, the defenders of the Ten Commandments are right to defend the Ten Commandments against those who would take them down from the Court House. Indeed, Divine Law is the same for everyone. It is the application that differs, according to Covenant. That is what I am trying to tell all who will listen. The Ten Commandments/Seven Laws of Noah represent the two sides of the same coin, Divine Law that demands of us that we do not seek to solve our own problems without G-d. This is not a "Jewish" List, even though I am Jewish. Rather, it is a List intended for Gentiles who are tired of the same religious teachings, and who are looking for the structure of Divine Law without the additions of men. There are some Jews on the List, but it is primarily intended for Gentiles who want to learn Torah. The purpose of my List goes a lot further than this. It is not B'Nai Noah. Nor is it a Chabad List. I am not a Rabbi, nor do I go to anyone except HaShem for a Hec'ture. I do not dwell on religious subjects merely. You see, the Noahide Commandments are very pregnant. They are not "Seven Simple Rules", any more than the Ten Commandments are "Seven Simple Rules", or that the entire Torah is "613" simple Rules. We are talking about a complex reality. I believe that the Noachide Laws demand of the Nations that they re-evaluate themselves. If there is a Commandment against Animal Cruelty, then we have a political factor in the equation. It affects factory farming, for instance. It has a say on whether we allow family farms to go under. The Commandment of Just Courts has an influence on whether our monetary system is conducted with unjust weights and measures, whether we allow provate bankers to control our money or whether we place it under Congress as the Constitution demands. The Commandment against Fornication demands of us that we de-Britneyize and de-Madonnaize the young girls of America (Madonna is not a Jewish Kabbalist!). Divine Law matters. Religion is never merely personal. On this List, we discuss Patriot and Constitutionalist issues as few other Jewish Lists ever will. We discuss Conspiracy. Most Jewish Lists allow the Christian Patriots a monopoly on this subject. Most fear it. However, few can honestly analyze the events of the last four decades since the death of John F. Kennedy and not conclude that America has moved from a Republic toward being a Police State. Jews and Noahides have an interest in understanding these issues, and in not hiding behind comfortable illusions. Yet, we also challenge some basic assumptions of the "Christian Patriots" and the so-called Constitutionalists. For one thing, Torah supercedes the Laws of men. It transcends ALL systems of government, including Republicanism. That deeply offends Christian Patriots, who value the Hellenism of the Founding Fathers above "Jewish Legalism". Those further Right often hate all Monotheism, preferring the Aryan g*ds. Libertarians support the "right" to abortion, to chop down trees without thought of long term impact, and for private businesses to relocate in Third World nations to enjoy cheap labor. The NLA believes that Divine Law forbids those things. Finally, Leftists oppose our strong stand in favor of Israel. We are a wing of the spectrum unto ourselves! My most controversial and least popular idol to smash is that of our two-party system. You seen, if we are Commanded to establish Courts of Justice, then we have a conflict when the candidates of both parties are subservient to Skull and Bones. We do not have a Just System of Courts when secret societies control the Nation. Justice is only compatible with the plain light of day. It is especially aggregious when the spiritual orientation of these societies is opposed to Torah. You see, if Torah MATTERS, then it is political, not merely private. It must influence how we vote. If we vote against the Noahide Laws, the we are a party to evil. I do not tell people not to vote for President Bush or Senator Kerry, or to refuse to vote for any Skull and Bones candidates (although that is my choice). I do not tell people what to think. Rather, I demonstrate the truth, that none of the major candidates truly honor Divine Law. My answer is not a "theocracy". Rather, it is education of the American people, so that they will vote according to Righteousness. It is not violence or revolution, as that would only empower those forces most opposed to Torah. Indeed, I am only one voice. However, I am doing what few are doing. No one is doing it in quite the way that I am. Torah is not for Israel alone. It is universal. Too often Israel has attempted to claim Torah for itself. Ironically, "Replacement" ideologies follow in this very heresy, applying "Israelite" status to themselves while forgetting that being an Israelite is an added responsibility, not a "glory" above the Nations. They follow the very error in Judaism that they decry, not even realizing that within Judaism is the real Universalism, however, under-emphasized within Jewish circles. No, Torah is for the Nations. I am doing my part to prepare for the Coming of Moschiach. When this happens, Moschiach will be our king, and will show other rulers how to rule righteously. Together, Israel and the Nations will acknowledge One King over us all, in a great comity of Nations. What form this will take I do not know. However, I know that it will come. That is my great hope, that no matter dark the day, my side wins. I hope that it is yours as well, General Bates, Noachide Liberation Army www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
